Instagram is Bringing Back the Chronological Feed It looks like the picture sharing app is listening to its users feedback and will reinstitute the option for a chronological feed. We’ve heard it can feel unexpected when your feed refreshes and automatically bumps you to the top. So today we’re testing a “New Posts” button that lets you choose when you want to refresh, rather than it happening automatically. Tap the button and you’ll be taken to new posts at the top of feed — don’t tap, and you’ll stay where you are. We hope this makes browsing Instagram much more enjoyable. On top of the button, Instagram also revamped the feed on the backend and made sure newer posts are more likely to show up first. The chronological feed feature was originally removed in March 2016 to many complaints.
